In a short answer Yes

In a Long answer no really.... Again I am a Democrat and I was swept into the Obama fever like the majority of the nation... but what does that say about us?

(Disclaimer: I am in no way implying that Obama Is anything like Hitler this is just a matter of a anaology)

Hitler was able to sway the masses with his High intelect and knowlege of propaganda... he was also able to rally millions of people together to hate a entire religion of people based on nothing more then his convincing speeches...

Obama does the same....He is very well spoken and really does spark a hope in people that we can change for the better not the worse. however, thats all it is a compelling speech. His actions speak louder then his words!

I do credit him with being able to unify our country and to (mostly) put hate and racist ideas to rest.
